Help bring a little extra holiday hope this year by making a difference in the lives of children and families here in the Nipissing and Parry Sound district. Your participation in The Joy Project will provide for a much more joyous holiday season for many of our children, youth and families!
You Can Gift It Forward By:
Sponsoring a Child, Youth or Family in Need
Donors are matched with a child, youth or family and receive information about their holiday wishes, clothing/shoe size and a list of household needs. To maintain confidentiality, children, youth and families are assigned pseudonyms so we ask that no personalized gifts are purchased.
The Joy Project empowers donors to choose the demographics of whom they wish to sponsor. Charitable tax receipts are available for all purchases – just keep your receipts.
Email santa@parnipcas.org to be matched with a child, youth or family.
Our greatest need is for large families:
Matching them can be challenging, making this sponsorship opportunity ideal for corporate organizations or groups with multiple contributors. Large families can include a single parent with three children or a two-parent household with six.
Donation Drop Off:
Donations can be dropped off at Santa’s workshop located at 140 Elmwood Avenue, North Bay (old St. Paul School) between December 11 – 13, 2024 (8:30 am – 6:00 pm).
If you’re located in the Parry Sound district, donations can be dropped off at 28 James Street, Parry Sound.
If you require pick up, please let us know and Santa can arrange a sleigh.
Making a Monetary Donation
Monetary donations are graciously accepted and we can do the shopping for you! Charitable tax receipts are available for any denominations.
